“Trump has said some things that are very vile back when he was supporting people like Bill Clinton,” Gohmert theorized. “But if you’re Bill Clinton’s big buddy like he was at one time, you’re going to talk like Bill Clinton. And I think we need to forgive him for talking like big Democrats like Clinton and other foulmouthed people.”

Oh, good Lord. Is Gohmert really playing the “Clinton made Trump do it” card? Seriously?

If Donald Trump is so incredibly weak-willed that he would have this entire hot mic conversation just to “be like Bill”, then he’s got no business aspiring to the Presidency.

And no — the “but he’s saved by Jesus now” excuse doesn’t cut it, either. Trump hasn’t changed his tone. He’s as misogynistic, duplicitous, untruthful, and hateful as he’s ever been.
